I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 1244: Chapter 1244 Demon God’s Scheme? (3/4)

Something wrong?

Mu Fusheng and Ning Chenxin were the most perceptive when it came to the overall situation.

Moreover, their feelings were usually correct.

So when the two of them spoke these three words, Ye Qiubai and his group, including Huang Qian, couldn’t help but focus their attention on them.

“What have you noticed?” Ye Qiubai asked.

Ning Chenxin and Mu Fusheng exchanged a glance and then explained with furrowed brows, “The movements from the Nefarious Demon Region aren’t quite right.”

“According to the intelligence, their third attack was extremely fierce, obviously unable to accept the defeats of the previous two times, it was clear that the Nefarious Demon Region was quite conceited.”

“And yet this third time also ended in failure, logically speaking, to stabilize the morale of the troops, and also knowing that The Mortal Realm and the Immortal Realm had suffered heavy losses, they should have hastened to deploy troops for a fourth assault.”

Mu Fusheng nodded and took over, “But six days have passed… still not a hint of activity, they’re probably plotting something.”

Hearing the conversation between the two, Ye Qiubai and others, including Hong Ying, also frowned thoughtfully as they nodded their heads.

That’s right, given the pride and conceit of the Nefarious Demon Region, they definitely couldn’t endure for so long.

Huang Qian crossed her arms and said lightly, “Should I go and check?”

Mu Fusheng was surprised, “Sister Huang Qian, do you have a lead, knowing where to start your investigation?”

But unexpectedly, Huang Qian shook her head, her demeanor calm and her tone incredibly relaxed as she said, “No leads, why not just visit their stronghold and see what they are up to?”

At this, Ye Qiubai and the rest couldn’t help but be rendered speechless.

Huang Qian continued, “I’m not going to fight, just to scout. It’s unlikely that anyone from the Divine God Realm would make a move.”

Suddenly, a loud shout from the Immortal Emperor came from above the city walls, “The Nefarious Demon Region is attacking, array masters and talisman masters, get on the walls, all others prepare to meet the enemy at the front!”

Ye Qiubai and the rest exchanged glances, all somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that they were overly suspicious?

Huang Qian spread her hands and said, “Well, it seems like there’s no need for surveillance for now.”

With that, she turned and walked out of the tent.

“Let’s go as well. Whether there’s a scheme or not, this attack might just reveal it,” Ye Qiubai said with a smile.

…

And in this attack, the Nefarious Demon Region changed its previous attack pattern.

The previous three attacks were each more fierce than the last, each more reckless than the last.

But this time?

They fought unexpectedly conservatively.

Not only was their advance extremely slow, but they also shifted their focus to using their demon shield army to fend off attacks while slowly advancing with the help of rear-line Evil Spear Army archers.

Of course, The Mortal Realm and the Immortal Realm still suffered even more casualties.

And this battle, as expected, turned into a war of attrition.

It lasted a whole seven days and six nights!

When they had advanced two-thirds of the way, the Nefarious Demon Region troops voluntarily retreated.

This left the Immortal Emperor and others extremely puzzled, the master’s eyes especially filled with confusion.

Above, the three Immortal Ancestors had also noticed something amiss, and the bearded Immortal Ancestor was the first to ask, “What are you in the Nefarious Demon Region planning?”

The Evil Lord sneered, showing his teeth as he said, “Planning? This lord doesn’t know what you’re talking about.”

Back on the city wall, Mu Fusheng spoke up, “It seems like they were delaying something.”

Ye Qiubai and the others also figured it out and nodded their heads.

“Master once said that in ancient times in The Mortal Realm, the Nefarious Demon Region had once used a certain strategy.” Hong Ying spoke with furrowed brows, “The opponent’s mystical imperial guards are not only proficient in illusory array formations but are also adept at beguiling the hearts of men.”

Beguiling the hearts of men?

Ye Qiubai frowned and said, “Does junior sister mean that the reason for the opponent’s delay is actually that they have already sent the mystical imperial guards into our Mortal Realm to destabilize us from within?”
